This Mother’s Day weekend Dave, John, and Jeff gush about Are You There God? It’s Me, Margaret, the sensational second feature film by writer/director Kelly Fremon Craig, adapted from the 1970 novel by Judy Blume. Starring Abby Ryder Fortson, Rachel McAdams, Kathy Bates, as three generations of ladies in this coming-of-age teen dreamed about accepting religion, friends, and the tribulations of adolescence, it’s honestly hard to talk about this movie without gushing about it, so please crack open a beer and get into the discussion with us!
We also gripe about producers messing over writers despite having (and losing) billions of dollars, as well as pharmacy stores a la CVS and Duane Reade locking up all of their supply but then their staff being nowhere when you need anything… something has to be done before Amazon swallows them up!

This week Jeff, John, and Dave discuss Guardians vol. 3. After we make some jokes and talk about the Writer’s Strike, we drink beer and try to keep it positive, having fun talking about movies! With writer/director James Gunn back and flying mostly solo, he gives the team the send-off we may want and deserve even if Marvel won’t let him follow through on. Rocket Raccoon gets his backstory, Peter Quill shares the spotlight after all the stuff from 1 and 2, Mantis and Drax continue their awesome chemistry from the Holiday Special, Kevin Bacon doesn’t get a single mention, Gamora and Nebula are still doing their thing, Adam Warlock and his… foster mom?… make a comedic appearance after drinking some of that Russel Crowe wine from Thor: Love & Thunder, and the villain does a great job as the 12th Marvel villain who wants to fix the world, not just destroy it (the writer of this didn’t read the comics).

This week we welcome one of the stars of Sisu (2022) Jack Doolan to discuss this incredible, fun, kick-ass film that just released wide in the USA, and man does it pack more than a few punches in its tight 91 minutes. Jack plays a Nazi soldier who operates as the tank gunner and second in command to a brutal SS officer (Aksel Hennie) attempting to rob a rugged gold miner (Jorma Tommila) in the Finnish wilderness in 1944. That was a really bad decision by them. While this movie doesn’t shy away from the brutality of WWII, it’s fun, funny, badass, and gives you something to root for. Directed by Jamari Helander, this movie crushed at TIFF and got distributed by Lionsgate and it just rules. It’s in over 1,000 screens so get your friends to see it as soon as possible!

Joaquin pulls out another tour de force performance as the titular Beau who fears the homeless almost as much as his mother, who left him living a destitute existence despite having means. Thanks a lot, Patti LuPone! Want to give up your SAG/AFTRA card, too??

This week on the pod Jeff, Dave, and John discuss the NYT Critics Pick (that’s true) Renfield (2023), starring the Nic(k)s! Nicolas Cage stars as Prince Dracula and Nicholas Hoult stars as the titular Renfield, The Count’s Familiar/assistant/Guillermo/fixer, helping him travel from location to location, reviving him with the blood of innocents until he is in full form capable of world domination. Anyway, the gore is really fun and bloody and silly, and the movie is pretty fun- and a tight 93 minutes!

This week Jeff and Dave are joined by horror expert and genre filmmaker Marcus Slabine to discuss Scream VI, the sequel to Scream V that asks the vital question, “Is there more nostalgia we could have squeezed out of Scream V?” Set in the Toronto version of NYC at the fictional Blackmore University, more Ghostface copycats are targeting the same people that were targeted in Scream V… but why? Are they just horror fans writing their own bloody script? You’ll have to watch to find out. We discuss.

This week the boys are joined by Ben Grimes, filmmaker and punk rocker who drinks Tequila drinks out of a Hydro Flask to keep it colder for longer and prevent the ice from melting LIKE A GENIUS AND A PRO. They discuss the new Elizabeth Banks-directed movie "18 Characters Develop Their Back Story in the Woods of Georgia". That's actually a Ben joke that we laughed at in the episode, we even laughed when John or he brought it back up later, but we all had a fun time in the theater, as did our audiences. So go see it. Or, if you don't, it'll be a rental in about a month, like M3GAN, also covered by us, which is not on Peacock literally the month after it came out in theaters. 2023, man. Anyway, just rent it at home in a month, pee during the back story parts, and have fun when the bear starts taking off limbs, because apparently all cocaine does to big animals is make them angry and possessed like a Floridian on bath salts cut with cocaine. Unlike me, who just talks really, really fast and gets really good at foosball and pool. Don't believe us? Follow us on the socials and reach out to us.

This week Jeff, John, and Dave discuss All Quiet on the Western Front (2022), the WWI anti-war movie that is the exception to the “stop making WWI & WWII movies” rule. From now on, no more. There are plenty out there, and we were stuck discussing Ant-Man and WWI this week. Ant-Man was the fourth most interesting character in his own movie (Boba Fett much?) and there are like 10 current wars going on right now. Come on. At least the film making was brilliant and it was a great “war sucks” movie that reminded us Nazis are fucking idiots, on top of everything else they are, and their minds were rat-fucked by assholes selling propaganda from their servant-adorning mansions. We discuss. John saw it in theaters, which is cool. Dave and Jeff did not. Netflix, amiright?

This week John, Dave and Jeff thank the Philippines for accepting our podcast as one of their top shows in Entertainment by discussing the first film of Marvel's Phase 5... apparently. While Ant-Man and The Wasp struggle for screen time in this part III, complete with talking raccoon jokes and scored by Paul Rudd's Scott Lang's audio book. And lots of size jokes. We drink beer and discuss with a focus on positivity!

This week the boys discuss M. Night Shyamalan's latest directorial feature, Knock at the Cabin (2023), which stars Dave Bautista, Jonathan Groff, and Rubert Grint. While Night had some source material to work with in Paul Tremblay's book "The Cabin at the End of the World", he changed the ending, so he was able to keep some surprise in how it's going to end. Not sure our co-host John liked that, he might have liked it more than his significant other, which is new for him. Jeff also made Dave edit some stuff out about the Chinese Spy Balloon because he ran his mouth about something he knew nothing about. However, since this movie has to do with the apocalypse, and we might have Russia and China both occupying land at the same time, maybe this movie will age well!

This week the boys are joined by actress Tina Nikolova to drink some whiskey and beer and discuss Aftersun (2022), writer/director (and multiple-BAFTA nominee) Charlotte Wells' personal feature film starring Academy Award nominee Paul Mescal (Normal People, The Lost Daughter, Gladiator 2) and newcomer scene-stealer Frankie Corio. The film is very Scottish, and those UK-ers must really love their lottery because The National Lottery sponsored this. Apparently they sponsor a lot. The film is about a woman reflecting back on a vacation she took with her young father when she was young, reliving moments and flashes through home videos that capture more about her father than she was able to see as a child. Powerful stuff!

This week Jeff & Dave went to another fun January thriller in the cinema before talking the walk without co-host John. Missing (2022) is standalone sequel to Searching (2022) and is a "desktop" movie, or screen-based thriller. With a bigger budget and time to create another simple mystery thriller completely enriched by it's premise, Missing is the second movie in three weeks (M3GAN) to know what it is and give it to us exactly as we wanted yet in a way we somehow almost didn't know we wanted it.
Cast/Crew: Nicholas D. Johnson, Will Merrick, Sev Ohanian, Aneesh Chaganty, Tim Griffin, Nia Long, Storm Rein, Ken Leung, Amy Landecker, Megan Suri, Lisa Yamada, Daniel Henney, Joaquim de Almeida, Lauren B.

This week we drink whiskey and beer and keep it positive as we discuss Women Talking (2022), the Critic's Choice Award-winning film that helps ignite one hell of a conversation. Based on the 2018 novel by Miriam Toews, writer/director Sarah Polley guides an incredible ensemble cast to some incredible heights. The film takes place over the course of three days and two nights in an agrarian Mennonite society where every woman- and most girls- has experienced a sexual assault and a gaslighting about it (it was a ghost, it was the devil, you made it up... infuriating). The women meet in a barn to discuss their options. Produced by Frances McDormand and Brad Pitt, amongst others, the mostly-female cast is led by Rooney Mara, Claire Foy, Jessie Buckley, McDormand, Judith Ivey, Kate Hallett, Sheila McCarthy, August Winter, and Ben Wishaw.

This week John, Dave & Jeff went with the teenagers to see M3GAN, the film that apparently makes young people in the theater want to watch Twitch, check their Snaps, record the screen, vape, and yell at each other for the duration. Lots of “bathroom” breaks, too. If only M3GAN would jump out of the screen and parent THESE kids by kicking their asses.
The movie is about Allison Williams not wanting to parent her niece, so she develops a doll designed to make Mark Zuckerberg look like Winnie the Pooh. It’s not terrifying, but it’s spooky and thrilling enough with a skosh of humor to justify it’s $30mill opening weekend.
